Nationwide — In response to the growing demand for culturally competent mental health services, the National Association of Maryland Therapists (NAMT), a Black-owned healthcare talent acquisition organization, is now hiring licensed mental health therapists across the state of Maryland. The company is offering fully remote, flexible, contract-based roles that pay between $55 and $65 per hour. This initiative aims to fill critical gaps in mental health support, especially for underserved Black and Latino communities who continue to face disparities in access to quality care.NAMT is actively recruiting Licensed Mental Health Therapists who are passionate about delivering high-quality, evidence-based care. Ideal candidates should be licensed in Maryland and possess a strong background in patient care, including the ability to support children, families, and individuals with diverse mental health needs. Therapists will have the opportunity to use techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), child-family counseling, and even dance therapy for clients who may benefit from creative therapeutic approaches.

“Our goal is to hire therapists who not only understand the clinical side of mental health but who also relate to the cultural and societal dynamics facing Black and Latino populations,” said a representative from the organization. “We are especially looking for therapists who can address gender-specific issues, provide inpatient support when needed, and contribute to a holistic treatment experience for clients.”

The role offers a flexible, remote schedule with the ability for therapists to choose their own hours. In addition to one-on-one sessions, therapists may work in group settings and will be expected to conduct comprehensive mental health assessments, create individualized treatment plans, and maintain accurate records in compliance with healthcare regulations. Experience in inpatient environments and training in ICD-9 coding are considered strong assets.

With mental health needs skyrocketing, particularly in communities of color, NAMT sees this hiring effort as a mission-driven campaign to address longstanding inequities in the mental health system. The firm is calling on all therapists — especially qualified Black, Latino, and all women therapists — to step forward and help meet the urgent need for more representative care providers.

The organization remains committed to diversifying the healthcare workforce while delivering compassionate and expert care to the communities that need it most.
